Above-ground biomass storage potential in primary rain forests managed for timber production in Costa Rica
(Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2021-07)
Tropical forests play a fundamental role in mitigating climate change through storage of carbon in above- and below- ground biomass. Their mitigation potential is, however, affected by significant greenhouse gas emissions ...
Biomass of timber species in Central American secondary forests: Towards climate change mitigation through sustainable timber harvesting
(Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2021-06)
Sustainable management of secondary forests for timber production offers the opportunity to combine nature-based climate change mitigation with direct improvement of human livelihoods in the tropics, but this dual potential ...
Altitude and species identity drive leaf litter decomposition rates of ten species on a 2950 m altitudinal gradient in Neotropical rain forests
(2019)
Identifying the environmental factors controlling litter decomposition is key to understanding the magnitude and rates of nutrient cycling in tropical forests, and how they may be influenced by climate variability and ...
Increasing Biodiversity in Livestock Production Systems: Plant Traits and Natural Regeneration Capacity of Woody Vegetation in Actively Managed Grasslands
(Springer Nature, 2023)
Species’ natural regeneration capacity is an ecological property of plant communities that is key to restoring diversity after disturbances and to conserving the delivery of related ecosystem services within agroecosystems. ...
